For those too curious about who the mystery woman, the love of Rana's life, is, read on. Miheeka Bajaj is the founder of interior design label and event management firm Dew Drop Design Studio. She studied Interior Designing at Chelsea University.
Miheeka is close friends with Sonam Kapoor's family and is followed by the likes of Anil, Sunita, Rhea, Anshula, Harshvardhan and Sonam on Instagram. Her Instagram friends also include Sagarika Ghatge, Kiara Advani and Masaba Gupta among others. Miheeka is the sister of businessman Samarth Bajaj, who is married to designer Kunal Rawal's sister Sasha. Sonam and Rhea attended Sasha and Samarth's wedding in Oman a few years ago. Miheeka is also part of the Boolanis' circle of friends - Karan Boolani is Rhea Kapoor's long-time boyfriend.
Rana Daggubati, who has always kept his personal life away from the media glare, opened up about dating actress Trisha Krishnan sometime in the past in an episode of Koffee With Karan and said: "We have been friends for very long and dated for a little time. But, I guess, things didn't work out." Talking about Rana Daggubati on the show, Baahubali director SS Rajamouli had said on a lighter note: "Rana is so structured everything has to be broken into structures and pieces for him. His whole life is like 1-10 years, 10-15 years, 15-20 years. Marriage is an aspect, a box to be ticked. That will get ticked. I don't know whether that marriage will last."
